Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2021 Honda Adv 750 M?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2021 Honda Adv 750 M?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2021 Honda Adv 750 M?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Based on MOT data from 173 vehicles, the 2021 Honda Adv 750 M has a first-time MOT pass rate of 98%, indicating generally reliable for its class. Always check the full MOT history of any specific vehicle before buying.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2021 Honda Adv 750 M?

This Honda ADV 750-M has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 54.4%, well below the UK average of 80%, which signals reliability concerns for a relatively young bike. The dangerous defect rate is mercifully low at 1.2%, so safety isn't the primary worry—instead, you're looking at niggling mechanical issues that need fixing before test approval.

The median mileage of 6,467 miles is low for a three-year-old machine, suggesting these bikes aren't being ridden hard, yet they're still failing at nearly double the average rate; this points to maintenance neglect rather than wear and tear. With only 0.03 failures per vehicle on average but 0.3 advisories, most problems are minor enough to ride past first time, but expect to budget for small repairs before the next test.
